Immunology

Immunology 2 has not been what I anticipated. Although there have been regular lectures, the number of theoretical concepts I have learned has been less than expected. Nevertheless, it has opened my eyes into one more real and practical face of immunology. I was aware that immunology is a diffuse health science on its own, strongly related to many others, but Immunology 2 has made me realize that being an expert in immunology involves many other skills like data analysis, innovation, communication

Compare and Contrast the Biological Processes Underlying Innate and Adaptive Immunity By (name) Course: Instructor: University: City/State: Date Compare and Contrast the Biological Processes Underlying Innate and Adaptive Immunity In the biology Immunology field, immunity is defined as the balanced state of a living organism for instance, the human body having sufficient biological defenses to combat infection, illness, or other unwanted biological incursion, while having acceptable tolerance to avoid

The medical specialty I'm most interested in pursuing is immunology. For as long as I can remember, I've wanted to work in medicine. When I was thirteen, I was introduced to the field of immunology and autoimmune disorders by way of my stepmother, who has an autoimmune disorder called Polymyalgia Rheumatica. I often accompanied her to her immunologist appointments and these visits piqued my interest in this specialty. The field of immunology encompasses everything from autoimmunity and immune deficiencies

Cancer: Cancer can be defining as disease condition in which cell divide and proliferate uncontrollably bypassing the normal rules of cell division. It is characterized by a progression of changes on cellular and genetic level that ultimately reprogram a cell to undergo uncontrolled cell division, thus forming a malignant mass. Carcinogenesis: Cancers consist of single clones or several clones of cells that are capable of partially (benign tumor) or fully (malignant cancer) independent

Before I receive my undergraduate degree, I will focus heavily on research related to Immunology to build my knowledge in this area of medicine since my dream career is to become an M.D. /Ph.D. in Immunology. Furthermore, in the following year, I will focus more on humanities rather than science related coursework. For instance, I will aim to improve my writing skills and deepen my knowledge of different cultures and societies through my Honors courses. By participating in these classes, I aim to

In the lab immunology and testing plays a big role in helping doctors helps patients. Many test done within the lab use specific types of test to rule in or out certain diseases and infections. These tests use patient’s antibodies or antigens to help detect if they are infected. The tests are done to be able to give to quick diagnosis of the patient so that they may be treated correctly and with speed. Some of the testing that is done within the lab help doctors deal with such things as syphilis

remain near my family while dealing with health issues. Eventually, after the deviation from my initial plans, I was able to get back on track and transferred to my current institution where I am currently working towards a degree in Microbiology & Immunology. Through my field of study, I would like to work on the understanding of how viruses are able to take over the hosts replicative machinery; in addition to viral replication, I also have an interest in the modification of microbes so that they can

biology and it allows me to have the flexibility to experience different modules before specialising. The ability of our bodies to detect a foreign cell and use mechanisms such as phagocytosis or cell-mediated immunity to fight disease is incredible. Immunology is a part of the current cutting edge research due to the constant updates in vaccinations and cancer immunotherapy. Studying Geography has enhanced my biological

doctoral training, it was fortunate for me to work as a teaching assistant during the practical course works for undergraduate students for seven semesters. While working as a teaching assistant, I got an opportunity to give a lecture on “Tumor Immunology” and also to arrange a demonstration of goat brain dissection for the undergraduate students and that gave me a huge self confidence. In research, the best way to teach is by providing the opportunities for students to learn and develop logical
